reverb on AB763 has a delay quality to it?
« on: February 12, 2013, 08:53:14 pm »
Hello all,

So good to be back into my amp!!!!  Had major neurosurgery on my lower back, and was out of everything for two years.  I have all my gear out, and have been playing and tweaking away.  :icon_biggrin: 

Anyways, I built a head, and have the speaker apart from the head.  I get a delay sound in my reverb, rather than a smooth taper to the effect.  I cannot figure out what is causing it.  The reverb sounds great except this is bothering me.  Any thoughts?  Thanks!

Chris

The reverb is a delay effect.It just depend on whether it's a short or long delay tank.

Any other reverb tanks on hand?

Maybe you're hearing a slap-back like effect from the tank be driven to hard, or maybe the springs are too "bouncy". Hard to know what's happening without hearing it.
